CALL FOR NEWS INTERNS FALL 2026

LNP Media Group, which publishes LNP in print and LancasterOnline for Lancaster County readers, is seeking intern candidates to work with its journalism team during Fall 2026. Interns are paid $15/hour and work full-time schedules for 12 weeks from mid-August to November.

During Fall 2026, successful candidates will report and write on the news or sports teams. We also have a news/sports photographer internship available. The deadline to apply for these Fall positions is April 15, 2026.

To apply, you are encouraged to submit a cover letter, resume and writing samples for consideration. You must also indicate which department's internship you are interested in — news, photography or sports.

You will need a valid driver's license, your own transportation and be located in Lancaster County for reporting purposes during this internship. It is not remote. You will be offered free housing as well.

This is a rich experience for journalists getting started on their careers with opportunities to chase breaking news, cover sports, and hone your photography skills.

Know, too, that you'll be part of a collaborative and supportive team of journalists from day one.

Have questions? Please contact internship coordinator Ted Sickler, Director for Digital Platforms and Strategy, at tsickler@lnpnews.com.
